unity

 unity


Deception in pointing fault to the others
We join the accuser of our brothers
Break in unity is from the depths of Sheol
 Look no further than the tree from which it fell


Seated in the heavenly places 
Jesus has provided spaces
Our audience to the father guaranteed by blood
All our words soft or harsh, to the throne flood


Have we like Elijah hidden in fear
Jezebel commanding the atmosphere
Or do we strike down terror
Together under the headship of the reconciler


Have we been building our own tower
And given Babylon the power
Where has flesh impeded 
The church's mission to be completed


All cost covered for harmony
The bride to move in unity


Weaker and stronger
Prophets and lamenters
Islands and nations
To be in gospel filled relations


He who has judged says it is done
We are to no longer cast our stones
All to be brought before the king 
 Praises in one voice to sing


The true enemy earthbound 
 His children are to make a  heavenly sound
Calling forth his goodness
Speaking to each other in pureness


Where sin has caused erosion
Divisive ways broken
Encouragement and devotion
Building bridges across the oceans


 This to be the church's rhythm

To commune in love and wisdom
